Calvin. Ya tugged at my heartstring over the little one. Ya see I buried my lab 2 years ago and she was a misfit. Like myself and my kids. She was the runt of the litter, and really was constantly ill for the first week, and the neihbor decided that it was time to take her for the walk. Well myself and the 3 kids at the time decided that we would make him a offer. We would watch all the puppies, and take care of them if we could see if the little one would make it. 5 weeks later we took her home and continued to bottle feed her for 2 more weeks and spent a ton of Dough at the vets. All the nights of tending to her, keeping her away from the others, and having her suckle alone payed off. She was our best and last dog ever. For 15 years she was the best friend to all 5 Including Destinee. So glad you are giving her a shot. It will pay off.
